Summary

Gleb Vaganov fails to kill the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, and in doing so, effectively condemns himself to a lifetime outside of Russia. Luckily, said Grand Duchess is forgiving, and as it so happens, she's also thinking of running away. Granted, she's running away with Dmitry, but Gleb will... take what he can get.

And they go from there.

(An AU in which Gleb doesn't go back to Russia at the end of the musical and instead gets to stay in France.)
